It allows content editors to create and manage a centralized glossary of terms and definitions directly within a SharePoint page. By presenting terminology in a searchable, easy-to-browse format, the Glossary web part helps employees quickly understand internal language, acronyms, and specialized terms used across the organization. **Where can I use Glossary?** The Glossary web part is designed for modern SharePoint Online pages and can be used across intranet sites, knowledge hubs, onboarding portals, and documentation areas. **Is Glossary mobile-friendly?** Yes. The Glossary web part is fully responsive and works across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices, ensuring users can easily browse and search glossary terms from any device. --- ### Configuration **How do I set it up?** Setting up Glossary follows the same simple process as other Accelerator 365 apps. 1. Add the **Glossary web part** to your SharePoint page. 2. Connect the web part to a **SharePoint list** that stores your glossary entries. 3. Configure display settings such as pagination, filtering options, and search behavior. 4. Publish your page to make the glossary available to users. Once configured, the glossary automatically displays terms and definitions stored in the connected list. See the full [Getting started](https://support.accelerator365.com/en/glossary-getting-started?hsLang=en) guide for detailed instructions. --- ### Editing **Where are glossary terms stored?** Glossary entries are stored in a **SharePoint list**, which acts as the central source for all terms and definitions. This makes it easy for editors to maintain and update glossary content in one place. **Can I edit glossary entries directly from the page?** Yes. Content editors can manage glossary terms directly from the web part interface, making it easy to update definitions or add new entries without leaving the page. **How can users find specific terms?** Users can browse glossary entries in several ways: - **A–Z navigation** to explore terms alphabetically - **Search functionality** to quickly locate specific terms - **Filtering by title prefix** to narrow results These options help users quickly find the definitions they need. **Does Glossary support multiple languages?** Yes. Glossary supports multilingual glossary entries, allowing organizations to present translated variants of terms while maintaining a single structured glossary source. This helps ensure terminology is accessible for global teams. **Can I link directly to a specific glossary term?** Yes. Glossary supports **deep linking**, allowing you to share a direct link to a specific term and its definition. This makes it easy to reference glossary entries in documentation, knowledge base articles, or intranet pages. **Can I import or export glossary entries?** Yes. Glossary supports **CSV import and export**, allowing editors to bulk manage glossary terms, descriptions, and related entries. This is especially useful when creating large glossaries or migrating terminology from another system. Learn more about import and export in our dedicated [Importing and exporting terms](https://support.accelerator365.com/en/glossary-importing-and-exporting-terms?hsLang=en) article. --- ### Appearance **Can I control how many glossary entries appear on a page?** Yes. The Glossary web part includes **pagination settings**, allowing editors to define how many glossary entries are displayed per page. This helps keep large glossaries easy to browse and prevents pages from becoming too long or overwhelming for users. --- ### Licensing & Trial **Is there a free trial available?** Yes. A **fully functional 60-day trial** is available so you can test the Glossary web part in your SharePoint environment. [Learn more here](https://support.accelerator365.com/en/getting-started/claim-a-free-trial?hsLang=en). **What happens when the trial ends?** After the 60-day trial expires, the web part will stop functioning until a valid license is applied. You’ll receive instructions on how to purchase and activate a license. --- ### Related articles - [Getting started](https://support.accelerator365.com/en/glossary-getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Use cases & best practices](https://support.accelerator365.com/en/glossary-use-cases-best-practices?hsLang=en) -
